Tina

Info & Schedule:

A few years ago all posters with under 100 posts were able to use a 'Standard Avatar' from a selection pre-uploaded to the site. When the size of avatars changed from 45 x 45 to 100 x 100, a decision was made to eliminate the default avatars.

As you know, five avatars were uploaded last year for this male celebrity. Again, we would like to upload five more avatars for this year. Like last year, we would like all posters to have a chance to submit avatars for consideration. Posters will still need 101 posts to upload a custom avatar.

We're going to add 5 avatars per board. All Moderators will pick 10 and the Graphics Team will then select the final 5 from those 10.

Schedule:
TV Shows: Present Feb 1st - Feb 15th
Female Celebrities Mar 4th - Mar 18th
Male Celebrities Mar 18th - April 1st
Music Artists April 1st - April 15th
Sci-fi/Fantasy and Fan Extras April 15th - Apr 29th
TV Shows: Past Apr 29th - May 13th
General Discussion May 13th - May 27th


Rules:

1) Please don't include any text on the avatars. (That means actual text or logo).
2) No animated avatars.
3) Keep in mind that the avatars should be a general representation of the board.
4) You may submit up to 5 avatars (no more) per person per board.
5) Apart from rules 1 & 2, whatever style, colors, brushes, textures you use is up to you!
6) All avatars must be 100px by 100px
7) Please DO NOT submit the same avatars that were submitted last year.

Please only submit avatars that you have made yourself. If you need help/suggestions please check out the thread here on the Fan Art board. You can see the icons we have already uploaded in the Edit Avatar page of your User CP.

You may start posting your avatars here right away!

Deadline: April 1st
PM Tina for any questions, concerns, and for mods: submitting the top 10.

Thanks for the heads up Tina.

I might see if I can whip something up.

Sadly I'm awful at this kind of thing but i hope we get some good submissions.

Hopefully I can find the time to whip something up but I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone else does!

Sorry for the DP, but here are my icons:

They're pretty basic and I hope they're okay!

Good job Angela! I really like the second and third one.

Chasing Fireflies

Those are great Angela! I haven't had any energy to get some done, but I'm going to try.

I love those! Sadly my icon skills are remedial, otherwise I'd make some too.

Thanks guys!

My skills are still basic - it was just cropping pics and slightly altering the colouring in some.

Are there any other icon submissions, because we need to send them through?

Roz - there's a post about this on the Mod board with a form we need to fill out - not sure if you've seen it. If there are no more icons, do you want to send them through? Otherwise I'll do it when I get home from work tomorrow night. Let me know if you do send them through.

Angela, there is a thread about this in the Mod board, if you want to look into that, go for it.

alee23

Okay I'm sending it through with the form now and I'm de-topping this thread.

Hey guys, heads up that Tina's uploaded the new avatars up. To have a look you just can into your User CP and edit your icons and then just select male celebs and you can have a look there.
